Efficient mass transfer in binaries naturally limits the mass of the first-born black hole and produces a sharp drop above 45 solar masses that mimics the pair-instability gap.

Population synthesis of helium star-NS systems yields DNS delay time distributions that peak between 80-250 Myr across metallicities, with 15% merging within 80 Myr and over 20% after 1 Gyr.
Self-lensing signals occur with probabilities of roughly 10^{-3} in WD+NS systems and 10^{-2} in WD+BH systems; TESS could detect at least one if 8% of white dwarfs have NS companions and 3% have BH companions, while Roman cannot.
Cosmic Explorer is described as a next-generation gravitational-wave observatory aiming for tenfold sensitivity improvement over Advanced LIGO to observe signals from the edge of the observable universe at z~100.
Interstellar objects may contribute enough baryonic mass to reduce the local dark matter halo density to 0.24 GeV/cm³.

Binary Evolution Can Mimic the Pair-Instability Mass Gap in Black Hole Mergers
Efficient mass transfer in binaries naturally limits the mass of the first-born black hole and produces a sharp drop above 45 solar masses that mimics the pair-instability gap.
